Recent new front calipers. Revington overdrive control unit (auto disengage overdrive on 2,3,& 4) with Steering-wheel mounted paddle to select overdrive (very useful). Mohair hood, sidescreens and specially made mohair tonneau cover (see pics) I've owned and enjoyed this TR3a for nearly 15 years - driving in the UK and continent. It is an absolute pleasure to drive with masses of power and torque. The car has a attractive appearence and gets many positive compliments. As could be expected, there are a couple of minor dents and a very small patch of paint bubbles at the bottom of passenger door. The overall paint is not perfect to the trained eye, but completely acceptable. The TR6 box and overdrive were reconditioned at the same time as the engine but recently it jumped out of third gear on throttle-back and then seemed ok. The mileage on this engine is approx 8k - it was installed in 2018. Comes with spare bootlid and hardtop with period spotlight fitted. (both solid but require prep and painting) Call or email for more information.
